A couple of years ago my DH bought me the factory tour and afternoon tea at Emma Bridgewater, plus making our own mug. It was so thoughtful as I adore Emma Bridgewater stuff, and every part of it was fun and enjoyable. I don’t see how he can ever top this, it was totally up my alley. I love looking around factories (I know, bit weird but I just find them fascinating), making stuff, afternoon tea, so it 100% hit all the marks.
What are your beat gifts and why?

A flying lesson. It was amazing. I flew it by myself for a little while and helped with the landing.

DH bought me a second hand retro keyboard with light up keys to help you learn.
I always wanted one but my parents couldn’t afford it - I can play the piano, I have a piano in my house. But oh my goodness I sobbed when I opened that keyboard.
